If you're using TBNL stand-alone, then you must set *USE-APACHE-LOG*
to NIL.  If a request comes in from a web browser, i.e. if TBNL can
determine that it doesn't come via mod_lisp, it sets the internal
value *USE-MODLISP-HEADERS* to NIL for this request.  TBNL will log to
Apache's log file if /both/ *USE-APACHE-LOG* and *USE-MODLISP-HEADERS*
are true.  It will log to the log file you've set if *USE-APACHE-LOG*
is NIL.  Otherwise it won't log at all.  See the source code for
LOG-MESSAGE.

HTH,
Edi.
